To guard against discovery by Imperial probe droids, Rebel scouts patrolled the area around Echo Base on tauntauns, native bipedal lizards that could withstand the planet’s frigid conditions.ĭuring one such recon mission, Commander Luke Skywalker was viciously attacked by a prowling wampa. They established Echo Base and began enlarging ice caverns and adapting their transports to the extreme cold of Hoth. The Rebels thought Hoth was an ideal location - a remote ice planet supposedly devoid of human life. After the destruction of the first Death Star, Princess Leia’s rebel cell abandoned its headquarters on Yavin 4 and began a long, frustrating search for a location where they’d be safe from detection by the Empire.
